Lampley disgusted me tonight..

Both Lampley and Kellerman seemed biased in favor of Cotto. Steward and Lederman were more objective and fair in their comments.[/QUOTE Jim Lampley has always done that, both he and Larry Merchant. You should see the way they bend over backwards to kiss Oscar De La Hoya's ass. In Oscar's last fight he fought a lightweight who didn't even deserve a shot at the lightweight crown, let alone De La Hoya. But to hear Lampley and Merchant, it was one of the greatest victories of Oscar's career and a terrific display of is skill. The fact is the fight was boring as shit and Oscar shold have ko'd him in three rounds. Instead he fought a boring 12 rounder that didn't have a single knockdown. HBO would neveeeeeeeeer have approved Steve Forbes as a opponent for Floyd Mayweather. Speaking of Mayweather, those two clowns criticize everything Floyd Mayweather does and/or refuses to give him any credit. Regardless of how you feel about Mayweather, that is not fair. That is why Mayweather lashed out at HBO recently. Both Kellerman and Lampley as well as everyone at HBO were rooting for Cotto and were hoping for a Cotto-Mayweather fight later this year. Margarito rained on their parade.

HBO had more $ in Cotto winnin so of course they were biased towards him. You shoulda expected that shit.

Well if you saw the last ppv you would know why he mentioned that... yup, pretty much

There were a lot of really good bombs Margarito landed that they didn't acknowledge.

Zero. Lampley's dickriding has never been more evident than in this fight. Cotto would land one punch and Lampley would saying, "COTTO LANDS A SERIES OF VICIOUS POWER PUNCHES!" :rofl::rofl: At times, it definitely seemed like Jim was calling this fight from about 4 inches deep in Cotto's asshole.

Fucker obviously had money riding on the fight. He made it a point to make the fans aware of how Margarito hit Cotto while Cotto was down. While they were playing the replay, he said, "Watch as Margarito hits Cotto while he's down." He was almost implying that the fight should've been stopped because of that. Lampley is a biased asshole and it again showed tonight. He wanted the viewers to believe that only Cotto's punches were effective. Even when Cotto was clearly getting hit, Lampley would say nothing.But he would quickly point out when Margarito got hit. He's one of the worst blow by blow commentators in the business and always has been. He shouldn't get paid to be a cheerleader for fighters he prefers.

That's never on the fighter in that instance, it's the refs job to see the fighter taking a knee and to step in, especially since Cotto has shown in previous fights he can get very low sometimes when avoiding punches.

Horrible commentating by Lampley. The fight was unfolding in Margarito's favor and still he was hesitant in acknowledging it.

He gets nothing from you. Zero. Lampley's dickriding has never been more evident than in this fight. Cotto would land one punch and Lampley would saying, "COTTO LANDS A SERIES OF VICIOUS POWER PUNCHES!"

yea, and they like isn't that a rule in Las Vegas boxing. HBO will do anything to take the victory away from Margarito He mentioned it as a stab at Cortez/Las Vegas who robbed a KO victory from Soto.

Well if you saw the last ppv you would know why he mentioned that...

He gets nothing from you.
